• U.S. airstrikes targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities have sparked debates over foreign policy and the potential for escalation, with President Trump signaling openness to regime change. While officials stress the operation aimed to degrade nuclear capabilities, critics warn of heightened regional tensions and broader instability.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — President Trump signaled openness to supporting regime change in Iran Sunday, following U.S. military airstrikes targeting three of Iran’s nuclear facilities. The strikes, which President Trump described as a direct response to Iran’s “nuclear weaponization ambitions,” have intensified debate over U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and the potential for further escalation.

“It’s not politically correct to use the term ‘Regime Change,’ but if the current Iranian Regime is unable to Make IRAN Great Again, why wouldn’t there be a Regime change???” President Trump posted on Truth Social hours after the strikes. “MIGA!!!”

The decision to target Iran’s nuclear sites has drawn mixed reactions both domestically and internationally. Secretary of State Marco Rubio clarified on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that the operation’s goal was to “degrade” Iran’s nuclear enrichment capacity, not to undermine its leadership or initiate a broader conflict. “This was not an attack on the Iranian people or an effort to topple the regime,” Rubio reiterated.

In contrast, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu conveyed a stronger message about Iran’s leadership. According to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), Netanyahu called for the Iranian people to “end this madness” and push for a regime change. “Israel is not going to live under threat from Iran anymore,” Graham said on NBC’s “Meet the Press”, recounting his conversation with Netanyahu.

Israel’s position reflects growing unease in the region, where Tehran’s influence has long clashed with U.S. and Israeli interests. “This regime is not going to be tolerated by Israel,” Netanyahu reportedly stated, highlighting heightened stakes for Iran’s role in the geopolitical landscape.

Domestic concerns and broader implications

Back home, Vice President J.D. Vance attempted to draw a fine line, stating the Trump administration does not seek “a protracted war with Iran.” Yet, critics argue that such strikes may provoke further instability in an already volatile region. Analysts also warn of potential repercussions for diplomatic relations, including with key allies in Europe and Asia.

The immediate future remains uncertain, with President Trump issuing a stern warning to Iran: “If they do not make peace, future attacks would be far greater and a lot easier.”
